Greetings Clara & list,

I was under the impression that new IMC's were *supposed* to have local 
members join the global groups (such as process, tech, new-imc, etc), 
as lurkers in order to pass relevant traffic back to their local 
collectives. If some of these lurkers eventually start lifting fingers, 
this is a bonus. BTW, some of us who appear to be lurkers are in fact 
busy helping the list--I'm one of the list moderators, and I've 
intercepted a huge amount of spam on this list, so that other list 
members don't have to bother with it. (My fellow moderators will 
rightly complain that I haven't done my share of this work in the last 
month or so--Sorry!!!)
